Inclusion

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry (DCB) is committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for all sectors of our diverse community (URM, BIPoC, Women, LGBTQ+, etc.). The Committee on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (CDEI) is tasked with promoting, educating, advocating, and responding to all issues related to DEI within the DCB. Further information on CDEI’s structure, the DCB's Strategic Action Plan, and more can be found in this page’s menu. 

Resources and links to support services for our diverse DCB population are also provided in the menu. Any other comments, questions, or concerns should be directed to our Diversity Officer and Chair of the CDEI, Prof. Peter Ford (ford@chem.ucsb.edu).
